1. Description of Service
Badger State Pros is a free informational guide to the building permit, code and license rules for home improvement work in Wisconsin. We publish data tables drawn from official sources, with the source and the date each row was checked, and educational articles. We list no businesses and grade none, and we do not provide contracting services, legal advice, or guarantees about any contractor.
2. No Professional Advice
Content on this site is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute professional or legal advice. Rules change and local rules differ: confirm any permit, code or license requirement with your city or county building inspector or with the Wisconsin Department of Safety and Professional Services before you start work. Cost estimates are approximate and may not reflect actual pricing in your area.
3. No Endorsement
A link to a website, including our sister sites, is not an endorsement, recommendation, or guarantee of quality. We encourage you to verify credentials, insurance, and references independently before hiring any professional.
4. Accuracy of Information
We make reasonable efforts to keep our data and content accurate, but we cannot guarantee that all information is current or error-free. Each data row shows the official page it was read from and the date it was checked; a city or the state may have changed its rule since. Where we have not confirmed an answer we say so and point you to the city.
